Considerations when changing over from Helium to alternative carrier gases in GC

In this webinar we will discuss possibilities to save on helium costs or to possible completely move away from helium as a carrier gas. The advantages and disadvantages of switching to a different carrier gas are discussed, as well as what the implications are. A recent addition to the Agilent portfolio offers opportunities to equip GC-MS systems in such a way that working with hydrogen as a carrier gas leads to better results than was ever possible before.

The key learning objectives are:

• What are the options to save on Helium carrier gas costs
• Learning the implications of moving away from Helium as a carrier gas
• Implementing alternatives for Helium carrier gas

Who should attend:

Everyone using Helium as a carrier gas for GC application and who want to save on Helium costs or forced to move away from Helium for a different reason.
